Wolf Oven Temperature Fluctuating
Oven Temperature Fluctuating is usually one of a small number of specific, repairable causes — here's what to check and when it's worth calling a professional.
Common Causes
Mineral load that depends entirely on your block
Valley groundwater runs 11 to 26 grains per gallon and the imported Sierra blend 4.5 to 9; on the hard end a fill valve and mould heater scale several times faster.
Dirty or blocked condenser coils
The compressor overheats compensating for restricted airflow and eventually shuts itself down as a protective measure.
A worn or torn door gasket
Lets a steady trickle of warm, humid air into the cabinet that the compressor can never fully counteract.
